Logistics UK to release its Logistics Report 2023 at Multimodal

“We will be hosting and contributing to a series of panel discussions and keynote presentations, focused squarely on the timely issue of supply chain sustainability and resilience.  

“Logistics is a critical sector for any country’s economy,” he continues, “but especially for a trading nation like the UK. It is the shipping lines, airlines, road haulage businesses and rail freight operators that form the fundamental backbone of the UK’s trading activity.  

“While it’s true that more than four-fifths of domestic freight is carried by road or rail, international freight more often arrives or leaves our shores by sea or air. It is vital, therefore, that the interests of the whole logistics industry are represented at the highest levels of government.  

“As a multimodal trade body, Logistics UK is one of the biggest business groups in the UK, making it ideally placed to support, shape and stand up for the interests of our 19,000 business members that move goods by road, rail, sea or air. We also represent a growing number of buyers of freight services such as shippers, freight forwarders, retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, importers and exporters whose businesses depend on the safe and efficient movement of goods.  

“Phil Roe will open the seminar series by presenting the key findings from our flagship Logistics Report 2023. Containing data from a wide range of national and international sources, including government departments, NGOs and industry bodies across rail, road, air and sea, this well-respected report includes bespoke analysis commissioned by Logistics UK on business costs, business sentiment and the many economic headwinds currently facing the industry. This will be followed by a plenary panel on end-to-end solutions for a resilient supply chain.  

“The second day of the conference will include panel discussions on the seemingly unstoppable rise of the logistics property market, international global trade, attracting the next generation of talent and how to grow sustainable rail freight.  

“I strongly urge you to attend our panel sessions and presentations, all delivered by experts in their respective fields, as well as explore the exhibition and contribute to the discussion and debate.” 

Multimodal will take place at the NEC, Birmingham from 13-15 June. To register for your free ticket, please visit multimodal.org.uk.
